I'm having problems sending a fax overseas.

If you are having difficulty sending a fax overseas due to possible interference on the telephone line, setting your Brother machine's Compatibility to Basic may help.

To change your Brother machine's Compatibility setting, follow these steps:

Press Menu.
Press the UP OR DOWN ARROW key to display Initial Setup.
Press Initial Setup.
Press the UP OR DOWN ARROW key to display Compatibility.
Press Compatibility.
Press Basic (for VoIP).
Press STOP/EXIT.

If you are still having problems sending overseas after setting Compatibility to Basic (for VoIP), try turning on your Brother machine's Overseas Mode.

Overseas Mode is a temporary setting, and will only be active for the next fax you send.
